I couldn't find a pic or story about the trucks today, but I changed the title of this folder. I'll be in Sarasota all of March this year. Here are some photos from previous years. I'm sure it looks about the same every year.

One of the Indians people I follow on Twitter posted a picture of a truck leaving this morning. I was too caught up in signing day to bring the pic here.

Actually I just went back and looked for the post and saw several posts about the trucks being loaded but not leaving until Friday. So I may have just seen one of those and misread it, since I was too busy looking for Buckeyes news at the time.

No worries, HB.
As I said, it's the same every year.

J.R.:

In one of the pictures you posted you will see a sign on one of the trucks. "Andrews Moving. Official Movers of the Cleveland Indians".

When the Indians played in League Park, Andrews Moving was right across the street from the rightfield wall. Homers would occasionally clear Lexington Avenue and hit the Andrews building. Now they are the teams official movers. Cool.

I had read that recently and it kind of stuck with me cause I found it interesting. I love worthless trivia like that. Don't ask me where. It wasn't that article, but am glad you shared that. I had no idea they started a museum there. Something new to check out next time I'm in town.
